Having a Cleaner Toxicology Profile
Dover Chemical developed the Doverphos® LGP® (Liquid Green Phosphite) chemistry in an effort to bring cleaner chemistry to the customers and industry.
Beginning with natural feedstocks, their scientists built a highly functional antioxidant thermal stabilizer with future compliance in mind.
As regulatory bodies look to make polymers safer for people and the environment, additives have become more scrutinized. Focus on the human health effects from additives and their degradation products, such as Arvin substances and NIAS, will only intensify.
Doverphos® LGP®12 offers the market a high-performance antioxidant stabilizer with a cleaner toxicology profile than traditional phosphite stabilizers. The Dover Chemical Team is proud of this achievement and their contribution to make plastics safer for all.
